VIRTUAL SHELF

This service offers the reproduction in digital format of some ancient or out of commerce volumes in the form of electronic books constituted of file images which reproduce the original edition in anastatic copy.

At present, it is articulated in two series:

• Golden series - Electronic books in CD-ROM containing the reproduction of ancient volumes
  This series, realized in collaboration with the Municipal Library "A.Lazzerini", draws on the rare editions preserved in the ancient Lazzerini Fund of that library.
• Blue series - Classical books in economic history in CD-ROM
  This series proposes some out of commerce works, which are not easily available in libraries, considered as fundamental to pre-industrial economic history scholars.

ACCESS MODALITY TO VOLUMES

This service offers for each volume all the bibliographic references and the possibility of visioning a demo containing the title page, the index, if present, and some pages of the reproduced volume.

The CD-ROM with the complete reproduction of the volume will be sent free to research institutes, libraries and scholars on request.

The service is carried out thanks to the contribution of: Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Prato.
